Default c. 1912 pair of Jim Thorpe TYPE I photographs...

the one on the left was taken by the legendary George Grantham Bain and on the right, just a split second prior, Bain's contemporary Paul Thompsom captured his version of the "World's Greatest Athlete."

I found these a few years apart and am still in need of a companion piece.

NOTE: Check out Thorpe's right calf
